Wow. What more can we say?
Early in the fourth quarter of Game 6 of the NBA Finals, the Heat looked like they were in trouble. That is, until LeBron James lost his trademark headband and went off. Even though LBJ looked really weird—like, really weird—without the headband, he played like a beast and put up 16 points in the fourth and eventually helped lead Miami to a win in overtime. Oh, and as you would probably expect, Twitter exploded when the headband-less LeBron took over.
Check out some of the craziest tweets that came across our Twitter timelines below…
Maybe LeBron should always play without a headband...
Is it just me or is Lebron impossible to spot on the court without his headband? #BasketballProblems
I'm never wearing my headband again either #riptotheheadband
DAMN . . . A HEADBAND GONNA CHANGE THE WHOLE DAMN NBA FINALS
MJ has the Flu Game, LeBron has the Headband game. #Finas
LeBron without a headband is like an unlockable character
LeBron should never put a headband on again.
ESPN is probably gonna do a Sports Science on Lebron without a headband.
Something about the fact that LeBron hasn't replaced the headband makes both awesome and loathsome. In other words: Typical LeBron.
Somebody tell LeBron to put back on his headband.. So the Spurs can win tonight...
Yooo, ESPN - better start getting your graphic design interns photoshopping a graphic of James sans headband.
picturing Bron embracing the lack of headband in a "MY HAIRLINE IS MY HAIRLINE" Marlo-esque moment and it's delightful.
LeBron lost that headband, and felt like he host his crown. Maybe he forgot what it felt like.
Lebron with headband looks better, but Lebron without headband plays better.
Can't remember last time I saw Bron play w/o the headband. Rookie year?
Every single person on my timeline is talking about a headband. The NBA is the most absurd league in the history of sports by so, so much.
So it turns out Lebron's headband was limiting the blood circulation to his head. Hence the improved play with it off.
Wonder what LeBron's headband will wear at the podium in the post-game #press conference
Lebron played so well without the headband, I figured he would've gone ahead and shaved his head during the timeout.
LeBron took off the headband. You think Mike Miller will take out his weave now? Might make everyone better.
